365 Cards Day 142 ~ Color Scheme







Each time I see a color combo challenge, I fret because I am not sure if I got the colors right or a good layout/sketch.  So I scour for sketches from other challenges which I think fit the bill.  For this 365 Cards Color Combo, I found Card Positioning System's CPS275 which I like for its simplicity.

Found this lovely patterned paper among my stash (the back of a writing pad I got from Hyatt Regency) which I thought fits two of the colors.  Mounted a measure of blue white grosgrain ribbon.  Die cut two scalloped circles on the Cuttlebug and pasted them on.  Got three cream colored buttons of different shapes and sizes and mounted two on the scalloped circles, and the third large one in between.  In the large button, I placed a baby blue square button tied with twine.  The card is kept stamp free to keep it clean.
